One thing I dont understand on the website... I do hope it's a mistake, otherwise I'll be in trouble
I remember in early days the event being advertised as a challenge where you pick your sport and have 11 hours to complete the distance. Very achievable, so I entered.
And now I had a look at the website and there's a table showing start and finish times each day. So, for the run it is: day 1 - 10 hr, day 2- 8hr, day 3 - 7hr and day 4 - 6hr ! 6hr for day 4??? I have to say I am worrying now!

Ah no, I got it all wrong! I didn't notice the different distances in that table! It's 6hr limit for some 6mile run while marathon has the10hr I forgot there were short distances to choose too. Sorry for the confusion. I am happy again

Blimey Gymfreak I can't believe how much you're cycling!
But how much time would it take you to cycle this 125 miles if you were to do it at a "leisurly" pace?
Maybe there's no need to stress so much?

GF of all the people posting on here I think you are the most prepared with the most miles in your legs recently, you will have no trouble completing all 4 days

Kaja I'm not sure, I haven't done 125m yet!!!
If I was doing it at a Sportive, probably 9-10 hours at a leisurely pace? But they are very hilly and this hopefully not so hilly so hoping I will be ok with the cut offs. I cycled just over 1200 miles last month but I feel very lacking on back to back anything.
